In this economic climate you would think that Del. Mark Cole (R-Fredericksburg) has been busy working on bills to bring jobs or relieve traffic within the Fredericksburg region, but no he has chosen to focus his energy on the snowpocalypse apocalypse.

That’s right, Del. Cole was the chief sponsor of a bill meant to save humanity from the antichrist. At this point, you may think this is a joke. Well it isn’t! On the surface, the bill that Del. Cole sponsored would seem to be non-controversial; however, when Del. Cole is involved there is always an angle.

The bill is meant to protect Virginians from employers or insurance companies implanting microchips in their bodies against their will. So why did Del. Cole sponsor this bill? He had concerns that the devices could someday be used as the “mark of the beast” as is described in the Book of Revelation.

Del. Cole went on to say the following,

My understanding – I’m not a theologian – but there’s a prophecy in the Bible that says you’ll have to receive a mark, or you can neither buy nor sell things in end times…Some people think that these computer chips might be that mark.

Huh? Fruit Loops anyone?

I certainly don’t think people should have microchips implanted within them involuntarily, but the rationale by Del. Cole is flat out crazy. Should we expect anything less from him?

Del. Cole added the following

I just think you should have the right to control your own body.

So, I guess he would support a woman’s right to control her body too?

In case you were wondering, the bill passed the House yesterday with 88 yeas, 9 nays, 1 abstention and 1 non-vote.
